New York wants the Democratic Nomi-
mating Convention. and the Herald makes
a bold bid for it. 1t says that in Chicago
there is more square-toed ruffianism to the
square inch than in any other American
city, and that a convention held there will
be dominated by MOB, as was the Carte d
convention. However" says the Herald,
'our Republican friends may like to trans
act business surrounded by menacing
mob, but we see no reason why the Demo-
Gratis should follow their example, when
they have New York with thousand times
as many attractions, not to speak of the
comforts and conveniences of civilization
which no one supposes to exist in Chicago"
The Wonder of the West will squirm under
this lashing, and may be expected to make
some reply equally as amiable.

Two of the Republican members of the
Elections Committee are Messrs. Lodge, of
Massachusetts,, and Houk, of Tennessee.
Mr.. Lodge is from Boston, and his nasal
twang, precise grammar and suave manners,
indicate that he is true son of the city of
culture and pugilists. Mr.. Houk is a rough,
uncouth man, addicted to coarse language
and tobacco juice, and has long been known
in Tennessee and the South as disciple of
Parson Brownlow. The contrast between
the two is very striking, but they vote the
same way

The Shadow of the wan.

From the Boston Daily advertiser.
We will not slur the glory.
Nor let the cry of pan
Drown out the triumph music
That celebrates earth's gain;
For still does history repeat
Mans forward march on bloody feet.
Twas two ideals i'm conflict,
And one must throttle one;
And all mans veal was waiting
Until the fight was done;
And from the struggle with its foes
A nobler human hope arose.
But now, to-day. while with us
Within the shadow wait
The widowed, orphaned, homeless,
The sick, the desolate:
Although we ne'er can pay the debt,
Wen show them we do not forget!
Remember then the glory;
But oh, remember, TOO,
The broken lives, 0 brothers,
Whose pain is borne for you;
And let each veteran feel we know
The worth of gratitude we owe

For many years New York has been talk =
ing of an underground railway, and she has
now determined to have a four track tunnel
extending from the City Hall to Forty
second street, by which person can go
from the City Hall to the Grand Central
station in seven minutes. Broadway is not
to be disturbed, the route being along Elm
street and Fourth avenue. The tunnel will
at all times be lighted by the best electric
lights, and the engines will be run either
with tireless steam or electricity. The en-
tire cost will be about s., 100000.

The Brunswick and Western Purchase.

The Brunswick and Western Purchase.
The Brunswick and Western railroad,
which has just been purchased by the
Savannah, Florida and Western railway,
was built with State aid during the Bullock
administration. It was so heavily bonded
that it mas never been equipped sufficiently
to meet all the demands upon it. 1t passed
into the hands of its German bondholders
several years ago, and since that time has
been on the market.
About three years ago the Central and
the Savannah, Florida and Western bar
gained for it, and supposed that they had
secured it, The announcement was made
that they had, but the sale was not COM
pleted. owing to certain conditions which
were attached to it.
The German bondholders have been run
ming the road since they have been in pos
session of it, but they have not regarded it
in the light of permanent investment.
They were constantly looking for pur-
chaser.
1t is doubtless fortunate for the people
along the road that it has fallen into the
hands of the Savannah, Florida and West
ern. 1t will now be thoroughly equipped
and run as part of that system. 1t will
receive the benefit of that systems intelli-
gent management.
The business of the road will, of course,
greatly increase because of the increased
facilities for doing business that will be
provided On that account if for no other,
the cities of Brunswick, Albany and Savan-
nah will have reason for rejoicing
The road is the shortest rail route from
the West into south Georgia and Florida
and also the shortest route from Albany
and Southwest Georgia to Savannah. II
could be made, at a small expense, part OF
a line that would be the shortest and most
direct route between the Alabama iron and
coal fields and the Atlantic seaboard. There
are great possibilities in the Brunswick and
Western

From the Chicago Tribune.

You say you want my daughter" said the
proprietor of a New York newspaper to a young
man who was sitting nervously on the edge of a
chair, and wiping his feverish brow with a
trembling handkerchief.
"Y-yes, sir"
Have you spoken to her on this matter?"
'She-she referred me to you, sir.'

DEAD LETTER OFFICE SALE.
Buying Packages Without Seeing
What They Contain.
From the Washington Post.

Flom the Washington Post.
The sale of unclaimed matter in the Dead
Letter Office was begun Monday at DowliaS' S
auction rooms, and large crowd of bidders
thronged the rooms, eager to purchase the
mysterious packages which were ranged along
the shelves and tables. The sale partakes of
the nature of a lottery, for although all the
articles are catalogued and sold according to
their numbers, still it is impossible to guess at
the value until they are opened and the contents
examined. The interest, therefore, never fiags,
and the surprises received by the purchasers are
frequent and often ludicrous.
The packages were sold at the rates OF four u
minute, and the prices ranged from 1c to 50.
Everything goes and the auctioneer accepts
whatever is offered, no matter how small the
amount.
There are. 1893 packages to be sold and the
sale will probably not close before Friday. The
number OF packages is not as large as usual, as
it represents only the accumulations OF SIX
months, instead of year, as is generally the
case. The variety of articles is infinite and
everything from a stocking TO gold watch IS
To be found in the catalogue.

Protectionists speak of keeping up the
faction in order that the Democrats may
again carry New York. They forget that
Samuel j. Tilden carried New York as far
back as 1876 by something like $1,000, on a
tariff reform platform, and that protection
theories have been growing more unpopular
every succeeding year.

Mrs. Cleveland is an ardent admrer of Gen.

the General with number of her lady friends
She praised him without stint, when the Presi-

to discharge Gen. Greedy on the ground of of
fensive partisanship.n Mrs. Cleveland is not
AFRAID OF any such mshap to liar friend.

DIR. M'GLYNN'S STORY
ABOUT THE ESTABLISHMENT OF
A PAPAL NUNCIO
AZ Warrington Denied by Cardinal
Gibbons. Who says the Holy see
HAS No such Intention.

NEW YoRK, June pa special from
baltimore to the Tribune, says: OF all
the utteranoes made by DR.. McGlynn
in his imprassioned statement to the
press at Buffalo last Friday, none at.
tracted more general attention than
that about the establishment OF q
Papal nunoio at Washington. DR..
McGlynn protested to say: "0n the
highest authority" that the Roman
Catholic church government was de-
girous OF having minister from the
Pope accredited to and received at
Washington; that such a minister
would be an archbishop, one OF the
Italian ring" as he put IL, whose
presence would be- "a fruitful source
Of corruption and enslavement for the
Catholic church in this country"
The efforts thauhave been made to
obtain an authoritative answer to this
allegation have heretofore not been
entirely successful. For the purpose
OF ascertaining positively whether any
such proposition was under considera-
ton at Rome, a Tribune correspondent
obtained an audience with Cardinal
Gibbons yesterday. Though greatly
averse to saying anything for publica.
ton, he at last authorised this state.
ment to be made on his authority
the highest in the Roman Catholic
Church In the United States: "First
the Holy See has up to this moment
expressed no intention OF sending q
nuncio 10 this country; and, second
the Holy Bee does not even entertain
such an intention"
